May Judkins's Story

Unable to sleep from the nightmares, May was already awake when the chaos started. She watched as kids ran around and, though she wasn't really sure what was going on, she started to try and push her way through the kids to where it looked like Chiron was instructing a group of kids fully dressed and ready for battle. She checked the bronze daggers strapped to her thighs, and palmed her hairpin. "What the heck is going on?" she breathed.

Jace Ran through the crowd rushing to reach the gates, and when he reached he was stunned to see the vast amount of monsters and romans. "Holy Hades....." He ran for May, the only person he thought could curse them, and aid with clearing of the monsters. He ran to the cabin and knocked quickly. "May! We need some help!"

Already outside the cabin, trying to push her way towards Chiron, May blinked and looked back thinking she heard her name. "Jace?" She made her way through the throng of kids back to where he was, "Jace, what is going on, here!?"

"Jace, what is going on, here!?" Jace turned to see May, he rushed to confront her. "It's the 12th, and they're organizing an army of monsters, we need any and all curses, please" He pointed his sword to the gate, "We need to hurry" As if on cue, a barrage of assaults hit the barrier. "Oh my Gods..."

As the shield was hit I turned to see the large group of Roman soldiers attack the barrier before a large group of dracanae. A spine chilling howl rose through the camp and a shape charged the barrier. "It's Lycaon All troops pull back all archers Fire at will!" I hit my chest and my suit turned into a large thing of white armor. My hat changed into a helmet with the large ploom and everything as I charged forwards shaking people off me as I ran. I grabbed a metal pipe as I broke the camp's front lines a few people behind me started to cry out. "What the hell is that guy trying to do?" I charged head first through the barrier and pushed a good number of the guys back but then the stabbing started and I let them stab me. I turned and punched one of my attackers while my other hand ripped the sword from him then I started hacking away at them. "This is for Achilles and all of my friends." I saw a black shape leap into the air and the crowd moved a few started hitting the barrier again. I stood in the middle of a circle with dead demigods around me and a werewolf in front of me I could hear it's breathe. "You go first human I like to toy with my prey first." I laughed and dropped my sword turning my back to him. "For fire be as fire may you will never have your way." I turned around and threw the fireball in my hands as fast as possible hitting the werewolf in the chest sending it falling back. I turned and ran towards the barrier and pushed into it. "Oh man well what are you waiting for go show them why Greece crushes Rome any day of the year!" I jogged back into the area near the cabins as a few people gasped I looked down and realised I had a few swords sticking out of me. "Ooops my bad I got it." I pulled them out and dropped them before walking up to two people talking. "Let me guess daughter of Aphrodite and son of Hephaestus right well that doesn't mean you can't fight." I pulled two swords out of my back and held them out to the two. "Though with your looks I wouldn't mind asking you to come with me I need somebody to talk to while I go find Hera." I said to the girl not that she would notice I had started to get quiet.

Nina woke up, startled.screaming? She puts on some overalls, grabs her hammer, and shoves some matches in her pocket. Nina looks around at the mess outside. "Oh. My. God." She runs over to the group of people. "What happened? Did you say you were going to find Hera? Should I come?

"Yeah sure, May can you do blessings to? I'll help the gate and let you people be the quest group." He looked alittle hurt, being called Hephaestus child. He could see that May caught the boys attention, and pretended it didn't bother him "It would help," He managed a fake grin. He pushed the boys sword away and took out his own blade. "If not I'll head out to aid at the line." He didn't need the blessing, he didn't want to leave.

With a small smile May lightly pushed the sword he'd held out aside, "Daughter of Apollo," she looked over at Jace, "and sorry, Jace, but Apollo kids can't bless, even the ones who aren't freaks." She sighed, "Large scale curses can be difficult, but I'll try."
"What happened? Did you say you were going to find Hera? Should I come?"
"Nina? It seems like there's a war starting, so it'd be great if you could go with Ja-" Then it hit her and she looked back at the new guy, "Hey, um.... white knight person? Did you say you were going to find Hera?" Well, now she thought she understood what was happening, not that she liked it, and she had a bad feeling that the visions in her nightmares might be coming true. "I-If that's the case, then... yeah, I'm going with you." She put her haipin back in her hair, she wouldn't need her bow yet, and pulled her bronze knives out of their sheaths. "Jace, please be careful if you go to the front," she grinned, "and don't overdo it with the dead guys," she'd prefer they all stay together, though.

Jace held his false smile, he would be flying solo, the worst part was something was off about this new guy, and he couldn't figure it out. He was too powerful to just show up unnoticed. "Good luck May, good luck New guy" Jace began to walk towards the gate. "See you all in Elysium."

"Well, let me come too, Hera can be... tougher than she looks. Jace, if you're staying, you'd better go get a weapon, 'cause something's going on here. Oh and new guy... you got a sword in your side, would be pretty painful to me. Go get cleaned up or you're gonna die faster if this doesn't go well." Nina swings her hammer in a circle and puts it in her tool belt. She checks her blacksmithing stone is in her pocket so she can fix their weapons. " Ok, you guys get set to go."

"Ha die haven't heard that in a while." I said pulling the sword out I dropped it and turned to the guy they called Jace. "You might want to come too this involves both of our fathers and my dad want's me to help yours." I turned a little and looked up. "Something about brotherly love and that crap." I looked at him as my armor changed back into a suit I ran my hands through my hair electricity crackled as my fingers exited leaving my hair standing. "I hate that it always does that always for the love of Zues just stay down damn hair." I put my hat back on and looked at the three people who I would need to help me. "I'm Anthony a son of Zues and I'll be your guide through the Labyrinth today." I tried to look charming just because I never really looked all that good but gave up after a good three seconds. "Well Jace you coming we need somebody to help us get into your dad's palace and beat whoever is giving him trouble." I had a long list of things to do and I knew it. "We have a long day ahead of us." They all had to find Hera after helping Hades then I had to find my old friend the goddess of magic. I heard a familiar voice as a person walked into the camp. I turned a smile on my face until I saw what my cousin was wearing. He was in full Roman armor and had been allowed in by one god his father. "Guys if your coming with me then get to the front of the labrinth Ares is playing for the other team." I took a step back and drew my bow a small arrow of electriyity forming in my hand on the string. "Well cousin what are you going to do we've been together all our lives?" I heard that and shot at his armor which just absorbed the shock and stunned him so we could run a group of campers jumped on him as I ran to the Labyrinth's entrance.

Nina runs to labyrinth's entrance. She turns to May. "Hera's my grandmother, so yeah, let's try not get into a family feud right now." Nina grabs her hammer and swings it around. " I have no idea what is happening right now, please fill me in, I woke up late." She checks her clock. " Dang, 10:00? I did wake up late! I wonder if dad knows about this. Probably does." Nina rolls her eyes, and grabs her lighter. She makes a little fireball on her hand and watches it.

May watched Anthony confront a kid in Roman armor, "Son of Zeus, eh? That might explain some things..." She shook her head to clear it, "Jace, you coming with? That Anthony guy said he needs all of us... and it seems like your dad's involved..." then when she heard Nina, ran over to her at the labyrinth's entrance, "Basically Hera's mad at Zeus for having an affair, and she decided to attack the camp with her own army to teach him a lesson... I think." She looked at Nina's fire, wishing she could do the same. She loves fire, after all.

Jace looked around, then at the oncoming storm of monsters and romans, "I'll be back, I promise on the Styx" Jace then cursed silently "Yeah May I'll head in last, you guys go." He didn't want to leave, he hated the labyrinth he'd had gone in quite enough. "Hey Bolt boy you wanna head on in, I mean ladies first right?"

I looked at her then at Jace. "Yeah you should go first." I said looking at him with a false grin I looked extremely sad as we entered the labryinth. "I trustees him with my only secret I've ever shared." I mumbled as I turned back and mumbled a small spell. "They can't follow us now at least not through this entrance that way we have some time." I looked at May and Jace with a frown we need to get moving and I'm sorry for assuming what camp cabin you two were in." I started to walk through the hall a jumpy look on my face.

May looked away from the fire and started to smile at Anthony's comeback, but stopped as she noticed his expression. 'He seems.. more distant than I thought. Wonder what's up?' she thought to herself.
She watched as he turned back and mumbled something, and what she could catch kind of... sounded like a spell? Her eyes widened a bit as he said "They can't follow us now at least not through this entrance that way we have some time."
Okay, she was getting pretty curious about this dude.
She blinked when he apologized, looked at Jace with a "what's with him" expression, and then followed Anthony, speeding up a little to walk beside him. "Hey, it's Anthony, right? You don't have to say sorry for that. Besides, you were technically kind of complimenting me, so I can't really complain..."
'Though I'd hate to be mistaken as some superficial, fashion obsessed girl...' she thought to herself
She shook her head, clearing her thoughts. Curiosity laced her tone as she asked, "Anyways, did you just cast a spell?" She noticed he seemed jumpy, but was way too curious about the magic to comment.

I jumped as May started talking to me. "Well um nobody has ever asked about me before." I was bright red and looked at her she really was cute. "Well I had a good teacher Hectate to be exact." I looked at the ground and was worried again she was like myr other mother. "You ever met your mortal parent?" I asked remembering my mother who had kicked me out shit quick. "My mother kicked my out before I was ten dad took me in and never let me out oops better call him." Started to look for my bottle of mist and threw a coin in it. "calling my aunt Athena." I say at the mist I watched as a big black beard appeared. "WHERE ARE YOU!" I nearly screamed as Zues yelled at me and my whole face paled. "Oh hi dad um where's Athena?" I looked at the screan as he leaned back. "She's busy with her job while I'm looking for you!" I looked away as a bit of my bow swiped through the mist cutting call off. "Oh gods he almost scared me to death well also I'm not really sorry about telling you you're cute I just didn't want to insult your boyfriend." I stared walking faster my face beat red.

She was processing everything she'd heard and seen until he said "cute" where May suddenly stopped walking, mind blanked, face blushing and she got redder as he kept talking. Suddenly flustered, she quickly said, "What? B-boyfriend? You mean Jace? Why would you think..? We-we're just friends." She wasn't good with that kind of thing... and Anthony called her cute... her blush deepened and she turned to face the others, "R-right Ja-" She blinked, mind shifting again as her focus changed, confused and curious. What? "Jace?" There was no answer, so she called a little louder, caution and annoyance mixed with her confused tone, "Jace? Where the heck did you go? This better not be some stupid shadow trick." Still no reply. "I-If it is, I'll put a curse on you! So stop playing around!" After she heard nothing she took a deep breath and sighed, "... What the heck?"

"Well damn let's go find him." I said turning to her I drew my bow and aimed at a large spider hanging above May. "Don't move big spider." It toured and I saw it was glaring at me. I gave a long loud whistle. "Lucy sick ' em." A large two headed hellhound tackled the spider from the shadows. I ran and crouched in front of May. "Listen I.m not stupid I can see how he looks at you and how you look at me like some weird science experiment you can study I get it I knew before aphrodite told me that I would be left alone for ever." I said before using magic to make arrows of ice appear. "Lucy go find the son of Hades and struck him." My mind went back to my first time in the maze I had a girl guiding me until she decided her experiment on my emotions was done and attacked me. A flash appeared and the goddess of love was frowning at me. "I never said that I just said you made it difficult can you belive this kid." She vanished again

Nina walks into the labyrinth, looking around. "Oh crap!" She yells when she sees the spider. " Holy mackerel that thing was big!"She walks up to Anthony. " Is somebody in LOVE!? Hahaha just kidding." Nina stares at this little snake with three heads before bashing it in with a hammer. "May, let me show you something!" She puts out May's hand and sprays some gas into it so the fire doesn't go on her hand, and puts a little fire on her hand. It floats above May's hand before burning out. " Cool, huh? Doesn't even hurt." Nina takes out some water and drinks it, then she puts it back and starts putting together some random metal robot thing with tiny parts.
